Glad I moved over to Poly Trucking

Got a backhaul, dead heading me up to bowling green KY going to Roanoke TX. Kind of crappy because it doesn't deliver till Monday but I will still have around 3k miles for the week but turning in a day late. I could do a 900 but I need a pm because I am overdue so I don't want to mess with that till I deliver the load.

 

Oh man , don't hit me with them negative waves

 

Picking up my backhaul in Riceboro tomorrow morning and 900ing it Saturday. The old girl is due a PM so probably going to grab a loaner and roll back out for a few days as I also need to have my APU looked at. Miami load went without a hitch and had my BH info before I was finished unloading so was able to beat most of the Miami rush hour fiasco. 5200 miles or so for the month and things continuing to look good.

 

Yeah I need to get my tanker, they have asked a couple times if I had it already. I heard other drivers complaining about those riceboro loads but who cares if it keeps the miles up ill take whatever lol.

 

I'm going to try the loaner thing from here on ,
There no reason to sit around and wait for repairs
when they have spare trucks available.
I have a list of repairs a mile long on my truck
there's no way they can do it in a single day.

 

Riceboro doesn't always need the tanker endorsement. I've been there 4 or 5 times and never had the load that required it. And the only bad thing about many of their loads is that they go to Laredo, which adds miles to the pay week, but also adds time so you don't always get back in time to turn in paperwork. The endorsement is easy to get. I used the practice tests on this forum (and other sites as well) and aced it 1st try.

 

Loaners aren't too bad, at least some of them. Others are like a lot lizard at a downtown truck stop. (Been used and abused by so many drivers, they are worn out)

 

Got my back haul info. Pick up in Fargo, GA tomorrow, deliver to Laredo...Monday. So, it looks like yet another $0 paycheck...

 

Join the club , I'm so far behind it crazy .

havent had a paycheck in 3 weeks , but hopefully I can turn in my stuff tomorrow at PGP

and get the ball rolling again.

yay !

 

Looks like my run good has came to a slow down. Call from OB this afternoon for Saturday would have been ok if I wasn't trying to get home for Christmas but since I am had to eliminate about 90% of the loads and the ones left had too much time on them but can't win them all I suppose. Took a HEB to San Antonio for Sunday night and will try to work some magic for something good on Tuesday out of GP.

Called from BH already for me to p/u in Poltex after San Antone and roll back to GP so all in all not too shabby. Four 400 days in a row just seems a little pedestrian after clocking in solid 550's for several days in a row Should also put me back for the free turkey as well on Tuesday.
